What is it about boys and baths?
When my brother was a little boy he would run around naked after his bath. It was no ordinary running. It was a joyous cavorting, a boisterous romp calmed only by my mother’s entreaties to quit leaping on the couch (which of course backed up to a giant window that faced the road).
After G’s bath, he tucked his towel over his head and took off calling “Up, up and away” and “Superman to the rescue!” I am not sure where he picked up the phrases, as he has never been up and away, nor seen Superman rescue anyone.
Regardless of why little boys enjoy frolicking in the buff, it made for a happy minute in my life.
Ha ha ha!! Great pictures! I love the fist one with his hand up. How do you DO this?? Do you have your camera strapped to you everywhere you go??!
He was running round long enough for me to go grab the camera. I think he would have went all night if I had let him!
I would do the same thing! Only, I would clothespin the towel around my neck and be Superman… I don’t think I was this cute though.
Leah, Dustin was the same way. As soon as he would get out of the tub off he would go. Usually there would be three of four laps around the living room and then the battle to get him to get dressed. This gives me a happy moment too!!! Angie
I had to check and see if this post still made me as happy as it did the first time, and it did
I love the lighting in the last two, by the way. It’s soft and also dramatic. I should have paid better attention in art class so that I could use better words to describe how it is I feel, exactly, about this light… Mostly, I love the little boy in the light, though.
great spur of the moment capture!
